German central bank deploys comprehensive, secure digital knowledge
database for streamlined electronic document flow and increased
efficiency
WATERLOO, ON, Feb. 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ - OpenText™ (NASDAQ: OTEX, TSX: OTC),
a global market leader in Enterprise Information Management (EIM), today announced that Deutsche Bundesbank, the central bank of the Federal Republic of Germany, has selected
OpenText to establish a digital environment that will safely house
business critical assets and encourage increased productivity and
collaboration. Deutsche Bundesbank is leveraging a number of integrated
solutions from the OpenText Enterprise Content Management (ECM) suite, one of five foundational pillars of OpenText EIM, which enables
organizations to manage information throughout its lifecycle, improve
business productivity, and control the costs and risk associated with
the growing volume and velocity of content being produced and published
in the enterprise.
The implementation of OpenText's leading ECM solutions is underway and
over 600 pilot users already have access to a system that seamlessly
manages over one million documents. Upon completion of the deployment,
6,000 users are expected to have access to the system, allowing for 10
times more data to be processed per month. With its content management
system fully operational, Deutsche Bundesbank is increasing the
efficiency and performance of its document management.
"OpenText's advanced content management solutions are eliminating
time-consuming paper-based processes and helping us to meet our vision
for a secure, unified and state-of-the-art electronic document
processing system," said Alexander Degitz, project manager at Deutsche
Bundesbank. "This digital overhaul is enabling our bank to maximize
workflow and raise information to the level of department spanning
knowledge. The transfer of physical floating files to their electronic
counterparts effectively reduces paperwork, improves speed of document
based processes and makes information broadly available through
search."
Deutsche Bundesbank is leveraging the OpenText Enterprise Content Management (ECM) suite to input, manage, process, track, store, and protect data. By deploying
solutions specifically designed to improve functionality and
information governance, OpenText users are able to take advantage of
increased levels of productivity and lowered administrative costs.
OpenText ECM, a key pillar of OpenText EIM, is designed to aid
businesses in maximizing value and minimizing cost through an
innovative approach to records management, information governance, and
collaboration. With OpenText ECM, customers can closely monitor data
from inception to retention, as well as retrieve important archived
documents for case management or auditing purposes. Template Workspaces
further enhance the way in which Deutsche Bundesbank operates, allowing
each division within the bank to maintain and oversee its own processes
and workflow. Information can be stored or relocated in a cost
effective manner and project details can be easily reassigned or
shared.
"We are proud to be able to provide our market leading EIM solutions to
Deutsche Bundesbank", said OpenText CEO Mark J. Barrenechea. "Through
the use of OpenText EIM, a growing number of global organizations are
able to better manage and exploit their enterprise information to drive
innovation, create competitive advantage and make better decisions
about their business while ensuring information governance and
security."
